Has anyone succesfuly hooked natives registered by sa-mp to run some custom code inbetween? i have a list of particular natives i need to override for some new math plugin i'm working on.

Additionally, is it possible to register plugin to a public callback or do i really need a ugly mirror-pwn hack script to call my plugin for each onplayerupdate? i noticed that even project shoebill uses pawn-activated plugin publics to execute stuff in plugin, so is there really no better way?

I cant really understand what your asking for (your wording is unclear), but i think one of these two links will be of assistance:

This posts explains how to setup invoke which calls natives (which i can help with via PM if you want):
http://forum.sa-mp.com/showpost.php?...93&postcount=8

And this one explains a new method that i have yet to actually use myself. I guess it does the same as invoke and offers a method for callback hooks as well (havent looked at it in to much detail tbh).

If im completely off base maybe try explaining what it is you're actually doing (in a bit more detail)?

You totally missed the point, i am talking about two things:

1. Gamemode callbacks - i want to know when onplayerupdate public is called inside my plugin without exporting a native and calling it from pawn/amx

2. I wish to override a native with a new one - if script or any filterscripts call setplayerpos, i want my plugin to hook between the calls to do something internally.

Oh i apologize then! I THINK the second link has an option of hooking callbacks without having to call a custom plugin function. Im not entirely sure though as i havent jumped into the code yet (just looked at a few bits). I've been going through PAWN so far for my C++ GM callbacks (its certainly less than ideal) so let me know if you mess with it before i do :P.

I dont really know about the second thing (well without using PAWN) so im of no use there . Hopefully someone with a bit more C/++ experience will come along and answer that one.

Look inside the 'hello world' seems to be exactly what you want to do.

That gamemode sdk looks promising on how to resolve the publics problem, but what about overriding / hooking sa-mp natives called from script to route them thru my plugin? i would really need this for some things that i am planning to use with this plugin, otherwise integration with script will be a big mess to override those via pawn.

Yes you can override a native function - just find its address in the native table and replace with your own

Код:

AMX_NATIVE SetPlayerPos;

cell AMX_NATIVE_CALL MySetPlayerPos(AMX *amx, cell *params) {
    ...
    return SetPlayerPos(amx, params);
}

PLUGIN_EXPORT int PLUGIN_CALL AmxLoad(AMX *amx) {
    int index;
    if (amx_FindNative(amx, "SetPlayerPos", &index) == AMX_ERR_NONE) {
        // Get a pointer to the start of the native table
        AMX_HEADER *hdr = reinterpret_cast<AMX_HEADER*>(amx->base);
        AMX_FUNCSTUBNT *natives = reinterpret_cast<AMX_FUNCSTUBNT*>(amx->base + hdr->natives);
        // Override the address 
        ::SetPlayerPos = reinterpret_cast<AMX_NATIVE>(natives[index].address);
        natives[index].address = reinterpret_cast<ucell>(MySetPlayerPos);
    } else {
        logprintf("SetPlayerPos not used in this script");
    }
    ...
}

I think if you hook amx_Register (like in gamemode sdk) then it can be done permanently, but this method needs some extra initialization code to be put in Load() anyway
